Apparently r46240 or related leads to a complete failure of the compilation of
the modules. Random example:

GRASS_PERL=/usr/bin/perl VERSION_NUMBER=6.4.2svn sh /usr/bin/install
-c  -m 644/tools/g.html2man/g.html2man
/home/neteler/grass64_svn_relbranch_bin_snapshot/grass64_relbranch/dist.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/docs/html/i.photo.target.html
/home/neteler/grass64_svn_relbranch_bin_snapshot/grass64_relbranch/dist.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/man/man1/i.photo.target.1
1
/usr/bin/install: /usr/bin/install: cannot execute binary file

The problem is
.... /usr/bin/install -c  -m 644/tools/g.html2man ....
